Could I be pregnant?

Hi everyone me and my partner have been ttc for over a year now with no luck.

For a few weeks now I have been feeling very tired and sick my moods have also been very up and down (I’ve been an emotional wreck)

i thought I could possibly be pregnant but then my period arrived last Thursday which seemed a normal flow and lasted around 4-5 days I obviously took that as I’m out.

However 4 days after my period had ended I have had lower right abdominal cramps for 3 days and also tiny spots of blood in my underwear and there was also very small amounts of spots of fresh bright red blood (sorry for tmi) on the tissue when I wiped after going a wee a couple of times.

i have never had anything like this before ever! does anyone know what this could mean? xxx

Have you done a pregnancy test?

HSKAT · 18/06/2022 18:18

Had you had sex before the spotting?

Have you done a test?

@BattenburgDonkey @HSKAT

i haven’t taken a pregnancy test just yet as the spotting had only happened yesterday afternoon and i have been pretty busy plus I hate getting my hopes up and then seeing a negative result 🤦‍♀️ I just dread doing it!

im just confused as to what this could mean? Especially after a period

You should take a test! Otherwise you're really none the wiser.

@HSKAT The spotting happened yesterday I last had sex during my period actually.. I began my period on the Thursday 9th june and had sex on the Friday 10th June which was last week

Kindly op, no one here can tell you.
If you've had unprotected sex, then yes, you could be pregnant.
If you've had a period, it could also be a UTI which explains spotting and cramps, or just a bout of spotting which can also happen randomly (if it continues see a gp).

Time for a test!

Hi everyone so I finally got round to doing a test this morning I took 2 FRER and I can’t tell if there’s a faint line or I’m imagining it what do you think? X

I think I definitely see a line in the first photo but the lighting isn't good, could you take another photo?

zeromango · 21/06/2022 13:55

I can definitely see a line!

withlovebabydust · 21/06/2022 14:19

@HereComesBaby2 @zeromango Hope this is better I feel like when I take a pic in natural light it’s impossible to see i edited the last 2 photos then the lines seemed a little more visible I’ve marked with dots above & underneath on this photo what do you think?

I see a line! I'd test again in a few days to be sure, got my fingers crossed for you 🙂

Mlexapet · 21/06/2022 14:26

I feel like I can see a line. Mine looked like this at 9dpo. I painfully waited until 13dpo to test again and got a blazing bfp. Perhaps your spotting is implantation bleeding in which case you'll need to wait a few more days for even frer tests to detect enough hcg in your system.

Mlexapet · 21/06/2022 14:29

My concern would be that you've had a normal period only days before spotting. Hopefully it's not a bfp of hcg leaving your system after a chemical 😔 keeping everything crossed for you.

11Hawkins · 21/06/2022 14:31

They look like evap lines to me. Give it a couple of weeks and retest. Flowers

withlovebabydust · 21/06/2022 16:50

Thank you so much everyone 🥰🥰

hopefully it will be a good outcome and I get my bfp (fingers crossed)

I have thought about It being a chemical or eptopic pregnancy or even just evap lines 😔

I will give it a few more days and test again
still feeling extremely tried and sick and a few mild cramps the spotting and cramps I had Friday just baffles me I’ve never had that before just have to wait and see I guess

Hi everyone

so I haven’t tested since Tuesday as I’m waiting until Saturday/Sunday to test again

but right at this moment I am experiencing sharp stabbing pains on the right side of my pelvis/ovary area if that makes any sense

does anyone know what this means or experienced this before? xx

How are you feeling today? It could be nothing but there again it could be symptoms of an ectopic. Are you able to get your gp to refer you to an EPU?

Mlexapet · 26/06/2022 13:43

How are you doing OP? Did you test again?
